Shantaram

At first, when we truly love someone, our greatest fear is that the loved one will stop loving us.
What we should fear and dread, is that we won't stop loving them, even after they are dead and gone.
...
The Indians, they love most of all.
That is how they manage to live together, a billion of them, in reasonable peace.
They are not perfect, of course.
They know how to fight and lie and cheat each other, and all the things that all of us do.
But more than any other people in the world, the Indians know how to love one another.
